According to Troyan, the emails claimed that bombs had been installed in several buildings. An image of what appeared to be an explosive device was attached to one of the letters.
“This wave of threats was different is that the senders added buildings supposedly used by regional media to the listed objects,” she said.
Valentyna Troyan reported the letters to the Security Service of Ukraine.
